Stand Up and Benefit. All are released as signed limited edition art prints.

What we need are epic concerts on blu-ray, dvd or CD. Complete concerts on video from eras where there is a gap: 1975, 1976, 1989, 1991, etc... But in any case, he sells and everyone is free to buy or not. No one is forced to.

[@michaelmclarney1994]

You are the very wealthy bugger that signs these, and you deserve every penny! Thanks for all the great music since I discovered Tull back in 79 when I played my Dad's Aqualung one rainy afternoon. I have been hooked ever since. 😀👍

[@davidohmer5296]

What a package. And this isn’t bad either. Ian is too funny!

[@justgivemethetruth]

Is he talking about his prodigious ... gut? I am worried about his health, he is really getting to be a Fat Man. I wonder if he does that song anymore? I love it.

[@justgivemethetruth]

@@tullmonkey Yeah sure, Ian is skinny as a rail.

[@timgainnes5534]

Tull is creative in every aspect whether lyrically, through song composition, variety of musical types over the years, and the actual artwork of the numerous albums.

JETHRO TULL! 💙🔥

[@merledoughty5787]

wow many fans would love this I know I would and imagine having these prints in good frames in my man cave

[@TheReflection82]

Ian, please! Give us a deluxe, extended, detailed, remastered by Steve Wilson version of Living in the past! Make it glorious! I'll be the first to buy it! That album needs a box set treatment!

[@mrkl171]

I bought 'This Was' when it came out .. because of the artwork cover. Saw you play three times. All great shows. I teach music on the side and my students know and love Jethro Tull.

[@davidcarberry3547]

Awesome Ian. Love all the Tull albums, on vinyl of cause, and the artwork.

Nice work! I still have my original Living in the Past Album :)

[@MinstrelInTheGallery]

Absolutely epic!! 😍

[@frekiaprog9047]

Actually, if I had enough money, I wouldn't mind buying them. But I'm saving it for what's to come: the concert in Barcelona, the Broadsword and the Beast, etc...

High Quality Paper ... woo-wee

I want one.

[@zorromaskedman8220]

I just looked up the conversion for British pound to USD. This whole box as shown above will set you back...drum roll...1800 pounds or $2,191...that's a collectable ! Thanks Ian...

I can't imagine there are many Tull fans who could afford, or even want this 'product'.

Are there going to be updates for Zealot Gene and the next album, and the next, next, next albums (hopefully) ? OK, still not going to get it ... can't afford it ... and don't have the room to frame and display all of that cool art.

[@RoyalDavid]

But Alas: To Be The Play Books in original and unused are still available after all these years. 1st book about Tull indeed. Copyright 1978 not 1973. Any reply enquiries??

[@portcullis5622]

He keeps 🍶ing that JT cash🐄 for every last drop!🤣 I still enjoy listening to a lot of Jethro Tull albums and music, but Ian Anderson continues to disappoint me by throwing all ethics in the bin for a few $$ more! In fact 'A Few Dollars More' would have been a good title for the recent album and tour.

[@biserkasertic1208]

Commercial Traveller (one of the songs from "Tooo Old...")

[@danholm4952]

whatever. getting greedy

[@justgivemethetruth]

Anything for a buck. Maybe Ian is jealous of Elon and Jeff and wants to start his own space program? It would be nice if some of the profits went to Burton Silverman ( artist of the Aqualung album ) without whom I would have never stopped to look at or bought my first Jethro Tull album.

[@AudioAl5195]

Rude. If you don’t want it don’t buy it. I think it is incredibly innovative and interesting.

[@justgivemethetruth]

@@AudioAl5195 It's rude to suck money like this from loyal fans who have paid hundreds already for the music.

[@robertashley7751]

Not quite right though..only half an album cover

[@frankzappaspussy7362]

thoroughly unimpressed.. i was in it for the music - and the album covers as they appeared at the time.. not this endless money grabbing machine peddling recycled shit..

Why would I want to clutter-up my humble abode with this crap?

[@BobC59]

Wow, a lot of cynics in here. As a big fan, I think its really cool.

[@denniskelley8974]

Well, I hate to say it, but I think a little cynicism is warranted. Upwards of $2,000 for the set? I mean, in my opinion Jethro Tull was the best band of all time during their prime. And I'll add, I consider Ian Anderson to be the single greatest all-around musical genius EVER. But having said that, I just can't quite understand the pricing of this (admittedly very nice ) art set. My guess is that the vast majority of lifelong Tull fans can't even come close to affording this. So... sad to say, but these will likely wind up in the hands of collectors/speculators, NOT fans.

[@BobC59]

@@denniskelley8974 I have to agree with you, except that many fans are collectors and vice-versa. But yeah, it would kinda suck to just end up in speculators' hands when many Tull aficionados would love to have a set. But who's to say many of them/us have not done well financially and will jump at the chance to own them? I guess ya gotta look at it and ask, "What is a price that reflects their specialness and rarity while being neither "cheap" nor exorbitant?". I think its cool they're out there for someone to enjoy, but I wouldn't know how to display/enjoy them if Idid shell out the cash.
